I'm back! And I bring prezzies!

[trinityofone]

First, everyone everyone everyone needs to go check out the beautiful banner (and new layout) siriaeve made for me: looooooooooooook! So. Pretty. *happy sigh*

Second, I pretty much tied myself down and made myself write something for sga_flashfic: Truth, and Other Literary Endeavors, McKay/Sheppard (do I really need to specify that every time? When do I write anything else?), far from my favorite piece ever, but my God, was I glad to have written it. Writer's block sucks.

Third, thanks to the fabulous stop, the mix I made for _rfa has a permanent home. You can check out the track list here, and then the .zip file is available here (right-click save): I Think We're Gonna Like It Here.

Fourth, boggle at the fuckin' fantastic icon siriaeve made for me! This is from a shop in Dublin that I have written about before, and have since taken:


It's real, people. We should all make a pilgrimage.


Look, it is right next door to a medical clinic! Paging Doctor Beckett!


*refrains from making a 'Stairway to Heaven' joke*


siriaeve says that Weir & Sons is, like, the Tiffany's of Ireland. Let's all just pretend that I'm not painfully tempted to write a Shop Around the Corner AU.


Not. Tempted. At. All.


We visit the World's Ugliest Statue of Oscar Wilde. This photo is all. about. the crotch.


randomeliza Vanna Whites The Smurfit Institute of Genetics. We thought this was hilarious. I still do. I'm odd.


My laptop, randomeliza's laptop, and siriaeve's laptop. We all (semi-)independently chose the same desktop. This needed to be commemorated.


I'm a bad person. Especially considering that that's the Stone of Destiny marker I'm leaning against.

Also, yes, it was windy. How did you know?


Fucking, Austria

and...

Batman, Turkey.

Sometimes I love the world.

So...I haven't read my friends list in about two weeks. Anything vitally important I need to know about? Anything completely trivial you want to tell me anyway?

Sheppards hairdressing. OMFG, THAT IS THE MOST AWESOME THING IN THE WHOLE WORLD. I-- I have no words.

[dar-jeeling.livejournal.com]

All right. I have calmed down. A bit.
a)The new layout looks gorgeous. b)Where's the desktop image from? c)Hee. Fuck destiny? You look cute in that pic.

Every time I walk down Wicklow Street I smirk to myself about Sheppards Hairdressing. I never clicked Weir & Sons before... oddly. Heh, now I've got two things to smirk about on Wicklow Street. *g*

I need to work for the Smurfit Institute of Genetics. I bet they would help me make my smurfs

[darcydodo]

Oh yeah, totally.

Stairway to Heaven! I finished off the Blowjob fic, thanks for your help before. And the statue of Oscar looks like Alan Rickman, that's a bit...off.

[wychwood]

Oh, coolness :) I like the photos! And the matching desktops - where is it from?

Last two weeks, hmm. I... drivelled lots? And... bought more U2 CDs. Oops. Also read Temeraire, which is awesome.

Also, rageprufrock posted the last part of "Boom Boom Room", but I imagine you've already seen that?

PS Send jarsy chocolate, she's having essay crises :)

[emidala.livejournal.com]

it sort of looks like your banner says "hales" rather than "[tales"... but not really. :)

[whiskeypants.livejournal.com]

love the pics.

news...met somebody.

other than that, life is all applications to law school.

[saturnalia.livejournal.com]

Sheppard's Hairdressing? *dies*

As for vital things you may have missed... hmm. Did you see that registration for this year's Remix Redux (http://remixredux.livejournal.com/7256.html) challenge is open? I have no idea if you're actually interested in that kind of thing, but I thought I might as well point it out :)

Also, spaggel posted pictures of Rodney as a dinosaur (http://spaggel.livejournal.com/96887.html). (Hey, it could count as vitally important. Sort of.)

[randomeliza.livejournal.com]

Oh, siriaeve and I totally made sure she saw the Rodneysaur drawings. CUTEST THING EVER OMG.

Melbourne, Australia was founded by Batman. No, really, John Batman. There are Batman streets and highways all over the place. Statues even. And on Phillip Island (where the penguins are)--Batman St. is followed immediately by Bruce St.

[lordelessar.livejournal.com]

That's just awesome. I once met a guy named Bruce Wayne. I couldn't help myself, had to make a joke.

Hmmm... I guess not really. There's stuff, but nothing worth rehashing. Still wondering if you got my email about the package from Nicole and I. Cause if you didn't, then I have no email contact for you.

Saw that Sarah is gonna be able to come visit you. That's pretty awesome. You guys will have a blast I'm sure. You should try to see some things that neither of you have seen already. Go exploring.

what's with the uber-locked post last friday? If there is nothing there, then LJ is being weird to me.

[nenar.livejournal.com]

Wait, have you actually been to Austria and Turkey? If so, when??

And taurendur says he really appreciates the Tara picture. I thought it was rather cute myself.

Did you cut your hair?

I love the lay-out. John/Rodney/Atlantis = OT3 :D

Look, it is right next door to a medical clinic! Paging Doctor Beckett!
*dies* Dublin has everything, doesn't it?

Not. Tempted. At. All.
Do. It.

Batman! This amuses me more than it should.

I translated a poem, and I'm very proud of it. Also, I know you share my sonnet love. :)

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

Hee! Isn't it fun when random fandom things pop up in normal life? (I have yet to shop at Rohan, but I'm sure the Lord of the Rings gee in me is just biding its time ;D)

[randomeliza.livejournal.com]

I still love your layout. And also, our computers are too pretty for words.

[blaurosen.livejournal.com]

Lol! I especially love the sign under "Fucking"

"Please! Not so fast!"

[ralphspudlanyon.livejournal.com]

Not only young, talented, witty, but pretty too? Hardly fair.

[not-sally.livejournal.com]

just.... Had to be.
